The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) and the Digital Learning Collaborative at the Friday Institute (FI) are jointly promoting a statewide expansion of the North Carolina Learning Technology Initiative (NCLTI), a layered approach to planning and implementing digital learning environments. Updates and resources can be access through the Digital Teaching & Learning Division. Statewide events such as Lunch & Learns, webinars, and professional development institutes will be posted as they become available.

Today, we hope you have gained insight and resources to utilize as you continue to grow your digital learning programs. Please respond to our survey on the AGENDA so that we may continue to improve our professional development and provide educational professionals the resources they need to succeed!
